Our Products

Investments recommended by D.M. Kelly & Company offer specific advantages for our clients. Depending on your current tax status and investment goals, your D.M. Kelly & Company advisor will discuss which types of investments are right for you. The following are some types of investments that help make up a typical D.M. Kelly & Company portfolio.

Government Bonds

Government-issued debt is the safest form of debt you can own because it’s backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. Government. T-Bonds and T-Notes are exempt from state and local taxes and are a stable source of fixedincome for your portfolio.

Municipal Bonds

Free from federal taxes, municipal bonds pay interest while supporting the infrastructure of local communities. In addition, certain municipal bonds may also be exempt from state and local taxes. These characteristics make municipal bonds ideal for investors in higher tax brackets who would benefit from tax-exemption.

Corporate Bonds

Corporate bonds generally have higher yields than government bonds because they are not backed by the full faith and credit of the U.S. government and are issued by individual corporations. D.M. Kelly & Company specializes in bonds with investment grade ratings. D.M. Kelly & Company investment advisors are constantly researching and purchasing bonds which will provide our customers with the right balance of security and return.

CDs

Issued by banks and FDIC insured, certificates of deposit provide D.M. Kelly & Company accounts with added diversity and security. CDs are available in a variety of interest configurations including fixed, stepped, variable or zero coupon. Your D.M. Kelly & Company investment advisor will help you determine which type of CD would best compliment your portfolio.
